Finds clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats and associated proteins (CRISPR) for metagenomic data without relying on generic assembly. It identifies and assembles sequences of CRISPRs that contain both known and novel repeats. The tool can detect direct repeat (DR) sequences when read length is short or DR-spacer unit is long.
